Apply a full head of color like an expert

Step 1: Prepare

Step 2: Mix

Screw the cap of the Developer Bottle on well, break off the tip, cover, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds or until mixture is even.

Step 3: Apply to Roots

Keeping the gloves on, apply the product to your dry, unwashed hair using the Developer Bottle as an applicator. Start at your roots, using the bottle to separate the hair section by section.

Step 4: Apply Through Ends

Then, apply the color throughout the length of your hair to the ends. When finished, massage into your hair and ensure it is evenly spread.

Step 5: Wait 25-30 minutes

Allow the color to develop for 25 minutes. (If you have lots of gray hair, or if your hair is particularly resistant to color, you may leave on for up to 30 minutes).

Step 6: Rinse & Condition

When time is up, keep your gloves on and apply a little water to your hair, massage to emulsify the colorant. Then rinse thoroughly until water runs clear. Apply the full amount of conditioner, leave on for 2-3 minutes, and rinse thoroughly.

Step 1: Prepare

Squeeze contents of the Color Cream tube into Developer Bottle.

Step 2: Mix

Screw the cap of the Developer Bottle on well, break off the tip, cover, and shake vigorously for 30 seconds or until mixture is even.

Step 3: Apply to Roots

Keeping the gloves on, apply the product to your dry, unwashed hair using the Developer Bottle as an applicator. Use the brush handle to make 1/4 inch parts and apply the mixture with the bottle.

Step 4: Allow Color to Develop

If you are using shades 1.0 through 9.0 allow the color to develop for 15 minutes. If you are using shades 11.0 or 11.3 allow the color to develop for 20 minutes.

Step 5: Pull Through Ends

Now, use the brush to spread and distribute the hair color evenly. You can also revisit resistant areas. Then, apply the rest of the mixture on your end. If you are using shades 1.0 through 9.0, you may leave on for up to 10 minutes. If you are using shades 11.0 or 11.3, leave on for only 5 minutes.

Step 6: Rinse & Condition

When time is up, keep your gloves on and apply a little water to your hair, massage to emulsify the colorant. Then, rinse thoroughly until water runs clear. Apply the full amount of conditioner, leave on for 2-3 minutes, and rinse thoroughly.

I love this Garnier Color Sensations Deep Burgundy ! I'm not big on bright colors and this burgundy gave me enough color to show off and still look professional. I have gotten so many compliments. The color was so easy to apply and the content was enough to cover my full head. My hair doesn't look damaged, it's smooth, shiney and healthy looking.

I absolutely looove this color. I've had it for about a week and it doesn't seem to have faded at all. My hair does not feel damaged, and it felt pretty amazing right after coloring, unlike other products that make your hair feel like straw. I love the deep burgundy color, and how rich the color is. My hair is super shiny. The box came with all the pieces I needed- gloves, the dye, easy instructions, a dye bottle and a brush! I just can't say enough about how much I love Garnier Color Sensation!

I liked how easy it was to apply to my hair. The precision brush helped to keep it clean without making a huge mess all over the bathroom. It smelled much better than most hair dyed. It wasn't near as strong and had a pretty hint of floral in it. The color was vibrant and made my hair look great. Hopefully the color will stay vibrant.

I really enjoyed it. The color took well to my hair and became a beautiful burgundy. It didn't look too dark and you could definitely tell it had a tinge of red including when it was in the light it would shine bright! It did not fade quick as most do.

I really loved the shade 3:26 Deep Burgundy, but was a bit skeptical it wouldn't end up the color on the box. After opening the contents I was excited because it came with a brush and looked so much easier to use then my previous attempts with other brands. The process was simple and the color turned out fantastic! <3 I am so happy with the outcome and glad I got to try it out free, because now I know who I can trust to give me great color and easy to use color! I would definitely purchase this for my coloring needs and recommend it to any one of my friends or family its that awesome!

I love this color. My hair is naturally dark brown and I wanted more red without it looking fake or bright. This was a very rich shade that compliments my skintone very well. I'm a huge fan and will definitely purchase to touch-up my roots with the great brush that comes with it!

This Garnier hair color is so vibrant and left my hair feeling silky smooth to the touch. It was so easy to mix and apply and the smell was not so overpowering like other hair colors. My hair is really thick so really needed 2 kits for full coverage but other than that i am really pleased with this product and will be buying it again!

I am thrilled with how the Garnier Color Sensation Deep Burgundy turned out. Not only is it vibrant, but it is perfect for me. The tones and highlights; the way it looks when the sun hits it. I love it. Also, the solution itself didn't smell like chemicals. It had a very pleasant scent. As well as, most hair color will bother my scalp; causing a burning sensation while waiting for the color to finish setting. The Garnier Color Sensation did not do that. There was no burning feeling and no discomfort from it. I am very happy with how this color turned out and how great the product really is. I will definetly use it again.

Garnier Color Sensation was easy to mix and to apply. I had no drips or splashes like some other dyes I have used. It covered evenly and one bottle was enough to cover all of my thick, just past-shoulder hair. I had no reactions and any dye that I got on my forehead or face washed off completely. While rinsing out the dye, I noticed that my hair was not as tangled or rough as some other dyes have left my hair. Upon drying, I found my hair was a beautiful deep burgundy color that I just love. My hair does not feel damaged at all but is soft and manageable. The color is even and rich, and I don't see any grays (I only have a few, but they are all covered).I would recommend this dye to my hair-coloring friends and would use it again.

This color is beyond beautiful! Colored PERFECTLY on my dark brown hair, and i also noticed it didnt have that usual hair dye scent, it actually smelled kind of good. Color took good on my hair, and it came out awesome! So happy with this color and i plan on keeping it for awhile! Thanks Garnier for this awesome sample.

I was a big fan of the Color Sensations formula. The color was shiny and bright, the color cream itself was not drippy and easy to apply, especially with the precision brush. The color still looks bright more than a week later. The color formula had a pleasant scent and was gentle on my hair.

The Garnier Color Sensation 3.26: Deep Burgundy is a beautiful color! I have been trying for months to get a color to stay in my hair, I have even looked up different ways to get box color to stay in my hair and for the color to not immediately wash out. So When I tried this Garnier I was super excited that it stayed in. I have had the color in my hair for about two weeks without any color fading and my hair looks healthier. The dye itself smelt amazing going in and was easy to clean up. I have always loved the conditioner that goes with hair dyes and their conditioner was amazing. This will be my new go to color and brand!
